OK closing the report as "invalid".

I'll open another one about the 64-bit build csv2cell() issue.

csv2cell works now without problems, the script example I gave in the beginning works fine now.

What I did in the meantime:
(a) uninstalled several older versions of Octave
(b) started Octave via the "official shortcut", i.e. the one that is created by the installer and points to octave.vbs

It looks like the problem was specific to my setup and in any case it is gone now.

Thanks for your answer and suggestion. Unfortunately, changing the system locale to en_US (was de before) did not fix the problem:

It seems to me that from Octave 3.8.2 to 4.0.0 the handling of special characters changed. Scripts written with the 3.8.2 editor that contained "°" (degree symbol) are displayed in the 4.0.0 editor as a questionmark in a black diamond. Could this be somehow related?

Works for me with (32-bit-) 4.0.0-rc1 from the gnu ftp site & io-2.2.7 with a .csv I have lying around, on 64-bit Win7:

It does look like a bug I have fixed some weeks ago (http://hg.code.sf.net/p/octave/io/rev/83ceb10fb36e).
All I can say is it works fine here.
Re-installing io-2.2.7 directly from octave-forge makes no difference, it just works here.

Does changing the locale fix it? (to e.g., en_US ?)

Slightly OT:
I do see that csv2cell() from io-2.2.7 crashes Octave compiled for 64-bit (i.e., with --enable-windows-64 configure option).
Until some weeks ago it worked fine in 64-bit builds.

I'm not very proficient in C++; after having tried compiling & running with several "std::cout << " statements I'm no closer to a solution so hopefully someone else jumps in.
All I can see is that the crash occurs in a while{} stmt in L.210 of csv2cell.cc

I am trying out Octave 4.0.0-rc1 under Windows 7 64bit. Having a file "data.csv" in the current directory, when I call
I get the following error:
My io package is version 2.2.7. After installing version 2.2.6, which came with the windows binaries, I still get the same error.
